Casual fan: why is there talons now?
rr member: ah, you see, raptor also refers to a bird of prey! Back when the team was created Jurassic park was big in the box office but with the new manag-
Casual fan: shut up.

There is no way they stay just black and white with the logo, the design firm is way smarter than to basically mirror Brooklyn. I'm sure it is there way of displaying an alternate logo design without giving away the new colour ways. Please somebody with a render program do this logo with the Toronto raptors writing in red or purple and the ring in gold.... One of each preferably
I would but I'm on mobile

Such an embarrassment rebranding. Adding the throwback games this year was awesome! Why do we need a full rebrand? Losers rebrand. Winning is the new brand, any idea of just black and white or any mention of gold is brutal. This will be our 4th rebrand in 20 years??!? How are we going to ever be taken seriously as a legit team... Subtle changes and additions are awesome but leave it at that

#Raptors RT @ekoreen: Can confirm that is the new logo. Expect uniforms and a full colour scheme in the new year. pic.twitter.com/AkKYE9LWGR

Think about it we would still be called raptors... Just we would be represented by a falcon, the hawks are represented by the bird for names sake whereas we would be represented by the nature of that bird.. The killer instinct. I feel that is perfect.
